|title=Mad in the Back
|rating=3.5
|genre=For Sharing
|summary=Mum is setting off on a long car journey with two kids in the back - did I hear you groan? Mum groaned too because she ''knew'' what was going to happen. She told the kids before she set off that they had to behave because she couldn't drive properly if the kids were going ''mad in the back''. The kids told her not to worry - and off they went. Then the kids started ''The Moaning''. Every parent will know exactly what this means: requests for drink, food, windows open... Then the squabbling starts: accusations that ''HE'' has got my book, ears are bitten by ''HER''. Mum tries diversionary tactics: ''look out of the window - there's a lamp-post''. (Yes MUm - we know desperation when we hear it.) And it gets worse. And worse. Then Mum snaps.

|summary=The Bad Lads had been together for years. They were scamps, mischief makers - lads having a bit of fun - and they were led by Joe Gillespie who was a year or two older. The lads thought that Joe was great but there was a niggling feeling amongst one or two of the boys that he was getting a bit more extreme and that some of his pranks were actually - deliberately - going to hurt people. The fire at Mr Eustace's (he was a conchie, you see) happened the same week that Klaus Vogel arrived in the town of Felling. The scrawny refugee from East Germany who knew hardly any English would change things for the Bad Lads.

|title=Minikid (Little Gems)
|author=Michael Morpurgo
|rating=3.5
|genre=Dyslexia Friendly
|summary=There seem to be more and more books being published, now, that are marketing themselves as being dyslexia friendly. This Michael Morpurgo story is from Little Gems and it follows the guidelines that make it easier to read for children with dyslexia. The paper is a high quality cream paper, so no shadows coming through from the other side to distract readers, there's a special font, and there are pictures throughout the story. It's a lovely size that fits nicely into small hands, with an appealing cover. So far, so good!
